The donations continue to roll in. My dad just generously donated his Christmas bonus to the supply drive for Layla House, and my Grandma Ruby contributed as her Christmas present to Brent and me. I still have some money left over from the donations, so I'll likely go back to the VANS outlet and pick up some more shoes (buy one get one half off plus I have coupons for an extra $40 off).
The kids at Layla are going to have some pretty stylin' kicks...
We're still collecting shoe, sock, and PJ donations until we leave for Ethiopia (date TBD, but hopefully in late January)!
This blog was created to chronicle our journey towards parenthood through Ethiopian adoption. Now that our kids are home it serves as a space to explore and record life as a family of four. If you feel compelled, read along as we work to create the Perfect Space for our family.
"I wanna have friends that I can trust, that love me for the man I’ve become not the man I was. I wanna have friends that will let me be all alone when being alone is all that I need. I wanna fit in to the perfect space, feel natural and safe in a volatile place."
